SECTIONAL GARAGE DOORS

Our range of bespoke sectional garage doors are a modern, aesthetically pleasing, and highly versatile solution designed for both high end residential and commercial properties.

Whether you are specifying discreet sliding garage doors or more of a bold statement garage door feature, our hand-crafted sectional garage doors look to bring sophistication and elegance to any luxury property.

Architectural sectional garage doors are a popular choice for architects and homeowners, offering a perfect blend of aesthetic appeal and functionality.

But how do you decide between side sectional and overhead sectional designs for your project? What are their main differences? And are there any design and practical considerations to deliberate for your project?

Understanding Sectional Garage Doors

There are two main types of sectional doors, distinguished by their opening mechanism.

Overhead sliding doors, which rise vertically and tuck under the ceiling, and side sliding sectional doors, which move horizontally along the wall.

Sectional garage doors offer distinct advantages over traditional types such as up-and-over or side hinged doors.

One such advantage is aesthetic flexibility. Sectional doors provide architects and specifiers with a clean, streamlined look that can easily be customised to suit the architectural style of any home.

Our sectional doors here at Rundum Meir are available in a wide range of timbers, including Nordic Spruce, Superior Spruce, Larch, Hemlock, Oak and Sapele. Each type of timber offers varying visual appeal with different grains and colours.

Another benefit of sectional garage doors is their ease of integration with automation. They are inherently easier to automate than many traditional doors due to their balanced and stable motion.

This feature makes them compatible with various automatic opener systems, adding convenience and enhanced accessibility. View more on our range of automation solutions here.

A third benefit of sectional doors is their increased security and durability. Built with robust materials and interlocking panels, our sectional doors offer enhanced security compared to other single-panel door options on the market, which can be more vulnerable to forced entry due to their large, unsegmented area.

The segmented design of sectional doors also means that in the event of damage, only the affected panel might need replacement, which can be more cost-effective and less troublesome than replacing an entire door.

Taking into account the above benefits, sectional garage doors not only meet the practical demands of modern high-end properties, but also contribute to the property’s architectural value. This makes them a superior choice for contemporary residential and commercial applications.

Side Sliding Sectional Garage Doors

Our Side Sliding Garage Doors complement many architectural styles, ranging from modern and contemporary styles to heritage Grade II listed buildings.

These doors are composed of several panels suspended from a top track that runs parallel to the garage wall. The track can either be a traditional u-channel with drainage facilities or surface mounted T-bar at the foot of the door.

Overhead Sectional Garage Doors

Our Overhead Sectional Garage Doors are engineered to optimise both functionality and aesthetics in modern architectural designs.

These doors consist of multiple panels that move effortlessly within guides at either side and are stowed under the ceiling when open. Torsion springs counterbalance the sliding garage doors to ensure a quiet and smooth operation, and can be specified in a manual or automated mechanism.

Our range of Overhead Sectional Doors are crafted from solid timber, and each set of doors we produce is bespoke and crafted to suit each project’s individual architectural requirements.

Rundum Meir uses the finest responsibly sourced timber (we support the International Tree Foundation), including tree types such as Nordic Spruce, Superior Spruce, Larch, Hemlock, Oak and Sapele.

We carefully create our Overhead Sectional Garage Doors, with craftsmanship offering a personal touch to each and every door. Indeed, the elegant timber door panels can be manufactured to have vertical tongue and groove boarding or routing, for compliance with conservation requirements.

For homeowners, the exquisite design and superior functionality of our Overhead Sectional Garage Doors will add style and character to your home.

We work closely with you or your architect to create a one-of-a-kind garage door that boasts exceptional functionality and durability, and importantly complements your home’s architectural style and individual character.
